Blizzard announces Overwatch Watchpoint as part of Overwatch League-Twitter deal

The Overwatch League has agreed a multi-year partner with Twitter, which will see more exciting Overwatch League content aired on the social media platform.

Part of the deal will see Twitter become the exclusive home of Watchpoint, a new weekly show that focuses on the league’s latest action. Overwatch Watchpoint will offer “stats, match predictions, analysis, and more,” Blizzard has revealed.

Watchpoint will stream live on Twitter throughout the second Overwatch League season.

Twitter will become Blizzard’s main platform for distributing OWL content. This will include match highlights from every regular season game, as well as the playoffs, Grand Finals and post-season matches.

Of course, OWL has already attracted a passionate and engaged audience on Twitter. This makes the two parties a good fit. The deal will help Blizzard to reach new followers and deliver high-quality and frequent content to the ones that they already have.
